| dc.description.abstract | The work presented is the result of research about the mapping of green areas in Rio de Janeiro city, the main aim of which was to verify the distinct process of occupation of these areas for housing and the preservationist environmental legislation that applies to them. The presupposition that guided the research was that a shantytown situated on a hill and preservation of greenery might not be such incompatible factors as generally attributed in the public view and reflected in the action of public authorities. The research results refer to a city district that, although covering a relatively small area, possesses great landscape and heritage potential. It is occupied by homes considered upper middle class and two shantytowns: Babilônia and Chapéu Mangueira, both situated within an Area of Environmental Preservation (APA). Another set of results is drawn from a large shantytown complex in Rio de Janeiro city, built in an Area of Environmental Preservation and Recuperation (APARU), located in the Serra da Misericórdia mountain massif, which lies within the Parque Estadual Pedra Branca (state park). As these areas constitute environmental protection in an urban context, investigation is justified if there are: 1) socio-environmental friction in the forms of occupation and preservation of the green areas practised by residents, as much the shantytown dwellers as those denominated formal; and 2) differences between these forms due to territorial and economic location. | |
